I actually just met Christopher Lloyd at Cincinnati Comic Expo and showed him what you’re doing and he was very happy and impressed with your work. I told him you were helping to preserve this ride for generations to come and he wants you to keep up the good work and know it’s so appreciated.
@@Themaxleydog hey, you deserve it. He was happy to hear people still love the ride and that someone was working to make it accessible to those who missed out on experiencing it.
I own a few pieces of the original 80’mm omnimax film used in USH, one very iconic strip of film from the very beginning of the ride. And also the lava river. You can see each frame is arched to compensate for the massive Omnidirectional screen.
I'm really glad I got to ride this ride before it closed (twister as well), though I missed King Kong by a couple years. Thanks for the hard work you put into this video.
Hi, we make educational videos showing the engineering behind rides. May we have your permission to use parts of this video for an upcoming video with proper credit to you? If we may or may not please let us know. Thank you, Amusement Labs
yeah I've seen your stuff before it's pretty awesome. I've been slowly replacing this older footage i did from 2017 with better footage that i worked a bit harder on than this that looks better , I could try and wrap what I got up so far into something more usable that you could use. Shoot me an email at emosun24 at hotmail dot com so we can talk about it a bit.
I went on this ride right after it opened. Got terribly nauseous, but that wasn't the real problem. The motion simulator seat movements were absolutely the most Jarringly Violent I have ever experienced, and I have been on a lot of simulator rides. I think it was a dangerous ride that could easily hurt one's neck with the extreme (and I mean Extreme) right-left up-down moves. Never went on it again; most brutal simulator ride I have ever encountered.
Remix the audio from stereo to the closest surround sound format possible to what the Omnimax theaters used (I'm not certain whether it was 5.1, 7.1 or something else entirely; I wish there was more documentation on that particular feature of the ride) and this restoration would be even better!
OMFG! I love you!!! Are u going to implement the little picture-in-picture from the ride itself? Lioe where Tom Wilson says stuff & you can hear Lloyd talking too?
screen tearing is an artifact thats screens produce , not digital files. Becuase the file is rendered it cannot have screen tearing , you could possibly see tearing while editing or playing the file back , but not in the file itself. basically , it doesn't have any tearing it's just on your end. Now if you were talking about frame skipping or burring , yeah it has plenty of that , there are several areas where frame blending only is used to cover up bad time warping which makes it skip a bit. but all this is kinda moot as i'm working on version 3 right now anyway.
I've built an IMAX film scanner (check my channel), if anyone has any leads on where to locate one of this ride's film reels, PLEASE let me know. I hope to perform a proper 8K scan.
I agree...not only does The Simpsons ride give a hilarious and true to the cannon of Back to the Future reason for the sale of the Institute for Future Technology, it got Christopher Lloyd to reprise his Doc Brown Persona. It also is downright hilarious, and a very well designed motion ride.
a 70mm copy did exist and was sold at auction a few years ago. I think it was then cut up and individual frames were sold as memorabilia . there may be another roll somewhere but it's not public knowledge as to where
Great work! I've been looking for a good version of the media for this ride. Would it be okay with you if I used your version to create a motion profile to?
you can create a profile to any version just need to know the movement, hoever other have already created profiles for this ride and have working vr and motion sims for it. So i'd suggest connecting with one of them
@@Themaxleydog Thanks! I'd actually like to do my own motion profile from scratch but just needed to know if it was okay with you that I use your media as a source.
@@mesamarshall3202 you can if you want although im redoing the ride footage so this 2.0 version will not really be the standard anymore. Not like I own the rights to the film or anything its all owned by universal
This is awesome! Any chance you can lift the Copyright so I can watch it and watch it in VR? Thanks. Amazing job. We've been waiting for something like this.
Themaxleydog When I try to download it to my VR player. It says this Video is "copyrighted content" so it won't let you download this video. Amazing work btw. So many great memories of this ride. You do it justice!
Hi Themaxleydog, this is a really nice job. I am working on a VR version (where the whole ride is designed: the garage, etc) but also making a real simulator. Do you think you could provide the same video without the optical correction, as it is projected on a virtual curved screen? That would be awesome! Obviously, I will put your name on the soft (Occulus and Vive). Thanks!
Hi Themaxleydog, sorry to ask again, is there any chance to see the video without the optical correction ? It is such a great work, it could help the community too :) thank you again for this amazing piece!

AI upscaling would not work with video. Only for still images. The AI will not consistently convert objects correctly between near identical frames. Meaning you'll get objects warping and flickering every single frame. I tried a few still frames and it really doesn't improve a whole lot over a general video made upscaler
@@Themaxleydog gigapixel has lanuched a upscaler for videos. I have seen a few test's of it and looks like its improving the video.,, Although the footage tested had low res but decend bitrate, which the available bttfr film lack (?)
@@danielval4616 the bitrate is high but it's vhs , so it quite literally doesnt matter how high the bitrate can get it's only a 480i frame. the video just lacks information. the colors are crushed too , giga pixel isn't going to be able to rebuild the lost information really. I even just recently revisited the footage to see if it was possible to redo it without crushing the blacks , but there's not a lot of information and the blacks are already crushed on the tape.
@@danielval4616 No i imagine they wont rescan it as the ride isn't a draw for many people. it costs money to scan film , money that they won't see back any more than just dumping the existing 2002 scan onto the discs
Its out of pitxh in some areas because the audio had to be rate stretched to fit correctly in different areas. The pitch was never fixed because I figured nobody would care all that much lol

thats nice to hear thx for doing that!

This is definitively the best footage we have without the original footage being re-scanned, You have done an amazing job

Would kill for a picture of this?
This is incredible, The quality is AMAZING! very well done& thanks for sharing

KlingonCaptain I rode that ride II when I was little I went on that ride with my dad
RIP Douglas Trumbull. Thank you for creating such a spectacular ride that changed the theme park industry.
Thank you so much for your hard work in making this! Believe me, we really appreciate it!
I cant even imagine how this would look in VR
I’ve been waiting for this :D
Since the resolution is so good I’m trying to find the rumored “cup” that everyone claims to see but I can’t find it.
the cup is in between the alley of the clocktower and the building to the right of it.
You will see it for like 1 second. But it is there.
Simply mesmerizing. I caught myself literally sitting on the edge of my seat. 😃 Thank you so much. ❤️

@@Themaxleydog i got it yes
Awesome job! It keeps looking better and better with every upload!
J. C. Peterson I hope he adds back Buff and Docs video clips on-screen and audio segments
You should also try to do the original Star Tours next.
I've considered star tours however not a lot of sources exist that can be blended
This is super cool 10/10 would recomend
GREAT SCOTT! It's amazing! Keep it up!
This looks epic. I hope one day someone will do this for the original star tours

we have a good news back to the future the ride is come back soon !!!
This is beautiful

I miss this ride so much since when I was a kid
Amazing
I don’t know why but see this guy loves back to the future

IMAX and Omnimax screens use 5.1 surround sound and an output of 12000 watts of power.
I just realized that the car your in doesn't have headlights on, but Biff's does.
Great Scott this is beautiful! #bringbackbttf
Impressive!
dude! im looking at this on my 144hz moniter and its is so smooth to look at nice job!
OMFG! I love you!!! Are u going to implement the little picture-in-picture from the ride itself? Lioe where Tom Wilson says stuff & you can hear Lloyd talking too?
Steven McFly that’s on a separate ride monitor
Thank you for your work!
Any chance you could put the vocal track over this video and upload it. I may be asking too much but it's Greek to me. Haha! Love the video..
Wows bro nice I like this version
you gonna build that bttf ride
Love the work, obviously fantastic. Is there a version of 2.0 without the Optical Correction? (Also, very much looking forward to 3.0!)
please make travel back the bring back back to the future the ride but even better with 8k and HD realistic colors of the version !!!
AMAZING!!! YOU DID GREAT!!!!
honestly the best rip ive seen although there is some screen tearing
screen tearing is an artifact thats screens produce , not digital files. Becuase the file is rendered it cannot have screen tearing , you could possibly see tearing while editing or playing the file back , but not in the file itself. basically , it doesn't have any tearing it's just on your end.

do you have a version with only the sfx?
I've built an IMAX film scanner (check my channel), if anyone has any leads on where to locate one of this ride's film reels, PLEASE let me know. I hope to perform a proper 8K scan.
This is not CG (Computer Graphics) right?
If they did Hill Valley 4050 at the Start this ride would still be operating
I wanna day stop hating The Simpsons Ride cuz it Replaced BTTF
I agree...not only does The Simpsons ride give a hilarious and true to the cannon of Back to the Future reason for the sale of the Institute for Future Technology, it got Christopher Lloyd to reprise his Doc Brown Persona. It also is downright hilarious, and a very well designed motion ride.
I’m not sure if this has been said but a 70mm copy of the film has to exist somewhere. A transfer must be done with you restoring.
a 70mm copy did exist and was sold at auction a few years ago. I think it was then cut up and individual frames were sold as memorabilia . there may be another roll somewhere but it's not public knowledge as to where
its beautiful! I was wondering if you could add the dialogue between doc brown and biff, if you are ever considering a third remaster
again the film reel doesn't have any audio on it at all the audio added is just an afterthought
Great work! I've been looking for a good version of the media for this ride. Would it be okay with you if I used your version to create a motion profile to?

The music and sound effects are there, but where the heck is the dialogue? Otherwise, this is an awesome remaster!
theres not supposed to be any audio track on the film at all , i should have left it muted.
It would be cool if the ride queue video could be restored as well, with biff stealing the delorean!!!
the rides queue video was originally standard def same as the dvd , no restoration needed
This is awesome! Any chance you can lift the Copyright so I can watch it and watch it in VR? Thanks. Amazing job. We've been waiting for something like this.
What do you mean "lift the copyright?"
Themaxleydog When I try to download it to my VR player. It says this Video is "copyrighted content" so it won't let you download this video. Amazing work btw. So many great memories of this ride. You do it justice!
I don't hold the copyright to back to the future universal does.
ya you should try star tours next
Good!

I have it on a drive. You'd be far better off getting the rights access to the actual film if you are developing/distributing software for it.
I won't distribute it ;) (or at least, only the engine), as this is just a personal hobby.
Hi Themaxleydog, sorry to ask again, is there any chance to see the video without the optical correction ? It is such a great work, it could help the community too :) thank you again for this amazing piece!
Funny, I came here to ask a similar question as Franck. This is a brilliant restoration and those of us making VR experiences (even if they are for ourselves) have access to virtual curved screens. The version without optical correction would be amazing to play with.
What happened to the dialogue?
the film strip doesn't have dialog , it actually doesn't have sound either. the sound was separate entirely from the strip
日本版のと比べると効果音がとても違いますね。
Could you do one with the voices¿
You should try AI upscaling just for the sake of it! :)
AI upscaling would not work with video. Only for still images. The AI will not consistently convert objects correctly between near identical frames. Meaning you'll get objects warping and flickering every single frame. I tried a few still frames and it really doesn't improve a whole lot over a general video made upscaler
@@Themaxleydog gigapixel has lanuched a upscaler for videos. I have seen a few test's of it and looks like its improving the video.,, Although the footage tested had low res but decend bitrate, which the available bttfr film lack (?)
@@danielval4616 the bitrate is high but it's vhs , so it quite literally doesnt matter how high the bitrate can get it's only a 480i frame. the video just lacks information. the colors are crushed too , giga pixel isn't going to be able to rebuild the lost information really. I even just recently revisited the footage to see if it was possible to redo it without crushing the blacks , but there's not a lot of information and the blacks are already crushed on the tape.
Btw, do you have any hope that the upcoming 4k release of bttf Will include a proper scan of the ride footage?
@@danielval4616 No i imagine they wont rescan it as the ride isn't a draw for many people. it costs money to scan film , money that they won't see back any more than just dumping the existing 2002 scan onto the discs
Do the simpsons ride
ok provide the films scans then
is it just me or is this very out of pitch...
Its out of pitxh in some areas because the audio had to be rate stretched to fit correctly in different areas. The pitch was never fixed because I figured nobody would care all that much lol
A bummer the suite of music from the ride was never released
